AEI Conservatism

"Democratic capitalism is the best approach we have found for advancing the material prosperity of our society..."

Check out Yuval Levin’s latest in ⁦@amconmag⁩ responding to the question: What is American Conservatism?

“Conservative anthropology points toward both communitarianism and individualism.” https://t.co/Y0MIrUZHIZ

Yuval Levin didn't say "Judeo-Christian values" but he might as well have.

How Is This Connected to Can. 747 §2?

"The Church's obligation to participate in shaping the moral character of society is a requirement of our faith. It is a basic part of the mission we have received from Jesus Christ." @ArchbishopGomez on #FaithfulCitizenship. Learn more: https://t.co/Gvo43oFwym. pic.twitter.com/AT9Sj3eSud

— U.S. Catholic Bishops (@USCCB) July 16, 2020

Participation can be limited to evangelizing and forming the faithful. But it can also be broadly interpreted to lecturing non-Christian governments and peoples.

Can. 747 §2 does presupposes some form of Latin integralism as being true and universally applicable to human society, regardless of whether they are Roman Catholic or not.

If the Greek Orthodox did not have a significant presence in non-Greek countries I would expect their leaders to follow suit, as they already have in the US to some extent.

Psychology Is Not Assumption-Free

What results will this "research" lead to?

We are very excited to begin this research on clericalism and #clergysexabuse. We're working with psychologists to break down the components of clericalism (including problematic constructions of gender and power) and assess their prevalence in current and future ministers. https://t.co/zQjQJghvk3

This isn't good enough:



Here the bishop probably isn't responsible for the choice of liturgical music or the parish's liturgical praxis, but he is responsible for his own ars celebrandi, and we see that it doesn't differ from the typical display of showmanship that is peculiar to the OF.

Same Roles Present in the HK Protests

So who trained whom? Or is there really a dark web that has this sort of information available for protestors, as I've seen reported?

Incredible graphic that explains all the various roles protestors play at riots.

I personally saw almost all of these in action. Add in medics and food suppliers as well. pic.twitter.com/aG4WKYGair

Hamiltonian Nationalism?

A debate between Samuel Gregg and Carson Halloway and Bradford P. Wilson.

Today’s American nationalism is a reappearance of the moderate, liberal nationalism of the American Founders, most famously manifested in the thought of Alexander Hamilton, Carson Holloway and Bradford P. Wilson write. https://t.co/KlwLbr1Had

.@drsamuelgregg's response to Carson Holloway and Bradford P. Wilson, who argue that Gregg's analysis goes “astray partly by overlooking some relevant aspects of Hamilton’s thought, and partly by implicitly mischaracterizing today’s American nationalism.” https://t.co/TpcxYuK6mF
